Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for separating and collecting rare earth elements, and more particularly to a method for separating and collecting rare earth elements from a composition containing a plurality of types of rare earth elements.
- High-efficiency rotating electrical machines are the main devices used in these environmentally compatible systems and products.
- a magnet containing a rare earth element (so-called rare earth magnet) is used.
- a rare earth magnet used in a high-efficiency rotating electric machine of a hybrid vehicle is required to have a high coercive force even in a high temperature environment, and contains a rare earth element such as neodymium (Nd) or dysprosium (Dy).
- Rare earth magnets are used. Rare earth magnets are indispensable for high-efficiency rotating electrical machines, and demand is expected to increase further in the future.
- Patent Document 1 discloses neodymium (Nd) and dysprosium (Dy). Separation using the difference in solubility of sulfate is described.
- Patent Document 2 describes a technique of acid leaching sludge and then solvent extraction.
- Patent Document 3 discloses a method of separating by utilizing the difference in properties between a divalent rare earth halide and a trivalent rare earth halide by halogenating a rare earth element in a mixture containing a plurality of rare earth elements or compounds thereof. Are listed.
- Patent Document 4 describes a method of separating and recovering rare earth elements as chlorides by reacting iron chloride with sludge or waste magnets.
- JP 2010-285680 A JP 2009-249664 A JP 2001-303149 A Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-73754
- Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 an extremely high concentration of strong acid or highly volatile solvent is used, and thus the influence on the global environment is not limited.
- the method described in Patent Document 2 requires a multi-stage separation because a single separation rate is not sufficient.
- the methods described in Patent Document 3 and Patent Document 4 have a problem that the rare earth separation rate is small.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a method for separating and recovering rare earth elements, which has little influence on the global environment and can further increase the separation rate.
- the rare earth element separation and recovery method has the following features.
- the method for separating and collecting rare earth elements according to the present invention can also have the following features.
- a method for separating and recovering a plurality of types of rare earth elements which is a mixture including a first rare earth acid chloride and a second rare earth acid chloride, and a rare earth element constituting the second rare earth acid chloride, Obtaining a liquid in which the first rare earth acid chloride is dissolved by putting the mixture in which the first rare earth acid chloride is composed of different types of rare earth elements into the liquid; and A step of recovering the first rare earth acid chloride from the liquid in which the rare earth acid chloride is dissolved; and a step of recovering the second rare earth acid chloride from the insoluble material not dissolved in the liquid.
- a rare earth element can be separated and recovered from a rare earth composition with a high separation rate with little influence on the global environment. For example, it becomes possible to regenerate and use rare earth elements with a high separation rate from sludge generated in the manufacturing process of rare earth magnets and used waste magnets. For this reason, resources on the earth can be used effectively, and it can contribute to sustainable global environmental conservation.
- FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the amount of Dy contained in a liquid in Example 1.
- separation rate of an insoluble substance when the mixing ratio of the neodymium chloride and dysprosium acid chloride in Example 3 is changed.
- FIG. The figure which shows the Nd amount and Dy amount of a solution at the time of changing the ethanol amount in a liquid in Example 6.
- FIG. 6 The figure which shows the Dy isolation
- FIG. 7 The figure which shows the relationship between the particle size of NdOCl and the amount of Nd of a solution in Example 7, and the relationship between the particle size of DyOCl and the amount of Dy of a solution.
- FIG. The figure which shows the Nd amount and Dy amount of a solution when the kind of liquid in Example 8 is changed.
- a rare earth composition a rare earth magnet (NdFeB magnet) containing neodymium (Nd), dysprosium (Dy) or the like will be taken as an example, and a method for separating and recovering Nd and Dy from this rare earth magnet will be described as an example.
- NdFeB magnet neodymium
- Dy dysprosium
- the present invention is not limited to this example, and can be applied to, for example, a method for separating and recovering rare earth elements used in phosphors and cathode-ray tubes.
- rare earth elements such as lanthanum (La), cerium (Ce), and praseodymium (Pr) can be separated and recovered.
- La lanthanum
- Ce cerium
- Pr praseodymium

Here, as the raw material (rare earth composition) used for separation, it is preferable to use rare earth magnet waste, for example, waste, defective products, or processing scraps (sludge) such as cutting during magnet production. From the viewpoint of easy chemical reaction, the raw material is preferably in powder form. Below, the example isolate | separated from the powder of sludge is shown.
